    In a series of inventions that are important to developing countries there is an air conditioning, assembled from plastic bottles. Eco-Cooler is made of halves of plastic bottles. These bottles are inserted into a special plate that is installed in huts instead of window glass. With the passage of the hot air from the outside through narrow neck bottles its temperature drops sharply. This helps to reduce the temperature by 10 degrees. In Bangladesh, a number of rural communities have already been using a similar system.
